Certainly an excellent education (and Greek experience) can be obtained from a non-Phi Beta Kappa campus. My alma mater is not on the list and is considered a competitive liberal arts school. If a school is on the list that you think is not "elite" because it's a large state university known as a "football school," you must realize that the size of the library, the research projects by faculty and the number of undergrads going on to pursue post-graduate work makes the school an excellent candidate.
I find the list interesting. Actually, if I was starting a social GLO -- I'd be more than satisfied with having a chapter at every school listed on the Phi Beta Kappa website.
oldu does a lot of work compiling these threads and I enjoy them. He stated that he would include NPHC groups if he had an accurate list. I think he's being more than accommodating.
oldu, I understand the correlation and really appreciate you putting up with all this!

True. And interestingly, many here rejoice when they hear that their sorority or fraternity will be colonizing at a so called "big-name" university. Even if the university is only known because of the football team. Or perhaps simply because it is the flagship university for the state. One only needs to read some of the colony and expansion threads to get a feel for it.
And for what it is worth, I too enjoy oldu's threads.
